Summary: Finally - a complete pronunciation dictionary
Review: Unfortunately I purchased another Shakespeare pronunciation dictionary before I found "All the Words on Stage". "All the Words" has over 5,000 words and it is arranged in a very easy to use way. It is COMPLETE. I wish I had found this first! Students and actors should have a copy of this book and I would think it is essential for anyone teaching Shakespeare on any level - high school or college. It really is a must have book for anyone who just loves reading Shakespeare or watching a production of Shakespeare. A previous reviewer mentioned the website which I found very helpful. It is www.allthewordsonstage.com.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Everything you ever wanted to know about pronunciation
Review: Well finally someone wrote a book that really does answer all of my questions about pronunciations. I wish I had had a copy of this book last year when I was in a production of "Othello". The cast really struggled. The director tried to help us but he was lost. Thanks to "All the Words" I will never worry about pronunciations again.

Also, the chapter on scanning is excellent. Best explanation I've read or heard.
